### Introduction to the Event

Hello, everyone! I'm Shme, and I'm thrilled to be at the Nurburgring for the N24 race weekend. This event has been an exciting journey that started in Italy with the unveiling of the concept for the new BMW 8 Series. From there, we flew to Germany, drove the new M4 CS, and made our way here to the Nurburgring to witness the unveiling of the M4 GT4 race car. Today marks the race weekend, and while the race will begin this afternoon, the highlight of the morning is the parade laps, known as the M Corso.

Currently, I'm in a parking lot surrounded by approximately 100 cars from BMW Motorsport. Among these vehicles, there's something particularly intriguing hidden inside a tent behind me—the new M8 prototype. We're about to get our first glimpse of this camouflaged car as it leads the parade. Alongside this, we'll be checking out all the other cars on display, including the M4 CS that I recently drove. A video featuring all these cars will be released very soon, but I'm particularly excited to see the new M8 prototype in action.

### Exploring the Cars at the Event

As I take a quick walk around, I can't help but notice the sheer variety of M-series vehicles here. The M4 GTSs are dotted throughout the crowd, with drivers getting ready to take them for a spin. Alongside these, there are several M6s and another M2 from JP Performances. Over there, on that side, you'll find some 1Ms as well. It's no surprise that this event is held at the Nurburgring, as many of these cars have been developed here. The vibrant colors of the M lineup are everywhere, with everything from X5s and X6 Ms to safety cars and more.

This Whistle Stop tour I'm taking gives me a glimpse of what's happening, but it's impossible to take it all in at once. The M4 CSs are further up ahead, but regardless of where you look, there's something for everyone—everything from the M2 to the M6, all in various colors and configurations.

### Highlighting Specific Models

Let's start with the M4 GTSs, which are scattered throughout the crowd. These high-performance vehicles are getting ready to hit the track, and it's going to be an incredible sight. Among the lineup of M4 CSs, there are cars in San Marino Blue and Lime Rock Gray, one of which I had the pleasure of driving recently.

As we wait for the action to begin, the new M8 prototype is about to make its appearance. Covered in camouflage, it's hard to see much detail, but the coupe shape and quad tailpipes give us a hint of what's under the wrap. The exhaust system sounds particularly impressive, with a deep, powerful tone that fills the air. The car also features a boot lip spoiler and slapping rear glass, reminiscent of the 8 Series concept revealed in Italy.

### The M4 GT4 Race Car

Leading the parade is the Moto GP safety car, an M3, which adds to the excitement. As we focus on the M8 prototype, it's clear that this new addition to the BMW lineup is a beast. It moves with precision and power, leaving everyone in awe as it makes its way down the track.

Following the M8 reveal, we have a variety of other cars to admire. There are M2s with new performance parts, including exhaust systems, and an M3 celebrating its 30th anniversary. The M4 CSs, with their ducktail spoilers and increased power, sit between the regular M4 and the top-tier M4 GTS models.

### Additional Highlights

As I continue exploring, I spot a line of cars that's truly mesmerizing. From an Austin Yellow M4i to a Long Beach Blue E92 M3, every vehicle here is a masterpiece. The E46 M3, a fan favorite, stands out among the sea of M4s, making it clear why this event draws such a crowd.

Further ahead, I find myself at the M Test Center, where I had the opportunity to drive the M4 GT4 race car. Comparing it to the M4 CS was an unforgettable experience, and you can expect a detailed video on that soon. The facility is buzzing with activity as engineers work on development and testing for these vehicles.

### Competition Announcement

After spending time at the track, I made my way to Apex, where I met up with Misha. The last time I was here was about a month ago, and since then, things have taken a significant turn for the better. The place is now fully set up, exuding the Nurburgring vibe with cars speeding by nonstop.

Misha and I are excited to announce a competition in collaboration with BotB. By entering the competition, you could win the chance to join us at the end of August for an unforgettable experience at the Nurburgring. You'll get to drive some incredible cars, including BMWs and other high-performance vehicles like the McLaren LT Spider and Ferrari Pachera (if available).

### Evening Events and Conclusion

As the day progresses, I find myself back at the M Festival, where the atmosphere is electric. The lighting in M colors is stunning, and the sound of racing cars fills the air. Despite the loud noise, it's impossible not to be captivated by the sight of the cars speeding past with their blue lights.

By this point in the evening, it feels like ages ago that we saw the prototype of the new M8. However, the excitement lingers as we look forward to what tomorrow will bring. The N24 race weekend is an experience unlike any other, and I'm already looking forward to catching up with you all very soon.

Thank you for tuning in! Make sure to stay tuned for more updates from this year's N24 Adventure. We'll see you back here very soon!
